Chapter 12: New Body

Su Xiaoyu tried throwing a few punches, and the wind she stirred up caused pain to Qin Guan’s cheeks.
If he were hit… It would be painful…
Qin Guan felt that he still had a long way to go before clearing the trial, hence he could only choose to submit to his sister and her might.
“I can’t bring out my full power now, but I really want to fly over roofs and run on walls now!”
Qin Guan could tell just how much Su Xiaoyu wanted to try it out. The only thing missing right then was her throwing open the windows and jumping out.
“Can you really fly over roofs and run on walls?” he asked curiously.
Su Xiaoyu thought about it. “I don’t think it’s possible for me to do it like in the movies, but my current physical abilities should be the same as those in the trial. I feel filled with energy, and I should be even stronger than the athletes in the real world. I won’t have any problem with running.”
After some experimenting, Su Xiaoyu and Qin Guan discovered that the new body she had gained by completing Map of Trials 1 in Medium Mode went against the laws of heaven.
In simple terms, she had brought the body she gained in the trial to reality.
It had to be known that the body in the trial was much better than a real human’s body. Even if someone chose to start the game with the body of a student, it would still be slightly better than that of an athlete in the real world.
This was even more so for those who started the game with the bodies of athletes. If such a body was brought to the real world, there was only one word that could be used to describe it: epic.
As for starting the game with the body of a useless person… Alright, next topic.
During the trial, Su Xiaoyu could use her new body to leap through all sorts of obstacles and jump on all sorts of platforms, and now, in reality, she could do the same.
Furthermore, the new body seemed to have unlimited stamina. It didn’t grow tired, and she could use it for as long as she wanted, and if she felt ashamed of it, she could change back to her normal body any time she wished.
They did not figure out anything else, but Qin Guan believed that the details would be revealed online very soon.
After all, Su Xiaoyu was definitely not the only one who could clear Medium Mode on the first day.
“Huh? Strange, my AI just told me I received a few basic attribute points as a reward, but I can’t use them now,” Su Xiaoyu said with some puzzlement.
She tried to ask her mobile AI system about the details of her current body, but it only answered some of her questions. It seemed that she still had to figure out many of the things on her own.
This only made Qin Guan think that the world was beginning to resemble a game more and more.
Even though it sounded really far-fetched, but the lvl 2 above Su Xiaoyu’s head exposed that the AI system was really just part of a game…
Su Xiaoyu rose from lvl 1 to lvl 2 after she cleared the trial in Medium Mode. Then, in the future, when she cleared more maps, would she continue leveling up?
However, once Qin Guan thought about it more, he felt that he might be the only one who had this feeling, because other people could not see the dialog box, did not know just what level they were, and did not see the strange UI icons as well. At most, they could chat with their mobile AI systems.
Hence, the other people would only feel that they were in a reality beyond their wildest dreams and not in a really realistic game.
Of course, Qin Guan could not see the dialog boxes all the time. They would only show themselves when he focused his attention on a person or an item and made a request to see their details in his head.
Otherwise, he would be bombarded with a bunch of useless information when he walked on the street. If he had to even see the information about the trash cans and flower beds by the sidewalk, he would end up really annoyed.
Moreover, Qin Guan discovered that other people’s mobile AI systems were, strictly speaking, just guidance and auxiliary systems. They were in charge of guiding their hosts to do certain things and help them solve some problems.
They might seem really practical, but in reality, they would not help their hosts solve matters or problems their hosts did not understand themselves. They would only tell their hosts that most of their functions were still locked. Their corresponding modules would only unlock once their hosts received certain information.
“So, once you cleared Medium Mode, did you unlock a new trial?” Qin Guan asked.
Su Xiaoyu shook her head. “No, but the mobile AI system told me that I’ve unlocked Hard Mode. Once I clear it I can unlock Despair Mode and Crazy Mode. With each of these modes, I will get new rewards.
“And each of these modes have a completion status. My completion status for Medium Mode is only 69%. If I raise it, I will also get rewards.
“Alright, I’ll go back to my room to challenge Hard Mode. You shouldn’t give up either; you have to work hard!”
Once Su Xiaoyu finished speaking, she returned to her room. Before she left though, she gave Qin Guan an encouraging look.
“I…”
Qin Guan groaned in his heart. He had only reached the 57th platform, which meant he was still a long way away from the 100th platform…
But he suddenly thought of something—his level of difficulty.
He could not challenge any of the six modes, so how was he supposed to get the rewards for those levels of difficulty?
Based on what Su Xiaoyu said, she chose Medium Mode straightaway, and once she cleared it, she was considered to have cleared Novice and Easy Mode as well.
So could it be said that once he completed the higher-ranked Developer’s Difficulty Level mode, he could also be considered to have cleared the former six modes?
When he thought of this, Qin Guan’s fighting spirit resurfaced. He quickly washed himself and lay down on the bed to challenge the trial. f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮
…
The next morning, Qin Guan got up and washed his face.
What shocked him was that he did not feel tired at all. He felt if he had just taken a nap.
The reason behind his puzzlement was because he had spent the entire night doing the trial. He did not sleep at all.
Since Qin Guan did not need to go to class on that day and the only task he had was to be a home tutor for some child at night, he had spent the entire night doing the trial with the expectation to sleep at noon.
Yet he woke up naturally at seven in the morning.
And he was filled with energy as if he had slept for eight hours.
“So, this means that when I’m doing the trial, my real body is actually sleeping and is not affected? Isn’t this too much of a hax ability?”
The trial was truly not letting anyone procrastinate…
When Qin Guan was still at school, he could look for excuses to go to bed earlier when he stayed up too late the previous night, and his excuses ranged from, “My condition in the morning will be affected if I stay up late”, “I’m so tired, let me sleep a little”, “If I sleep for two more hours, my head will be clearer, and I will be able to study more effectively”, and others along this line. Now? If he slept, it meant that he was in the trial, and there was simply no reason for him to not work hard…
However, Qin Guan still had some remarks about this. If everyone was the same as him, then he would have no advantage whatsoever even if he worked hard!
But he only said those things in his heart, because if Su Xiaoyu heard them, she would definitely mock him. “Who’s the one who slept for eleven hours every day?”
Of course, Qin Guan would definitely still be obstinate and refuse to admit to his mistakes. “I sleep a lot to make sure that my brain is constantly in its best condition. I’m a person who taxes his brain a lot. Do you have any idea how many of my brain cells die every day when I play games?!”
Their conversation would then end with Su Xiaoyu rolling her eyes at him.
Qin Guan went into the living room and found out that Su Xiaoyu had woken up even earlier than him. She had already finished cooking breakfast.
The girl looked smug. “I’m telling you, with this body, I can save up a lot of time buying breakfast. I went up to the fifth floor in one go, and I don’t feel out of breath in the slightest!”
“But we have an elevator in this building…”
“I climb the stairs faster than the elevator goes up!” Su Xiaoyu said proudly.
Qin Guan surrendered. “Alright, you win.”
‘You used such a good physical body to run down and up the stairs to buy breakfast. I don’t even understand why you’re feeling so smug…’
